RACINE, Wis. — The assistant wrestling coach at a Racine County school has been charged with sexual assault, according to the Racine County Sheriff's Office.

Alejandro J. Guardiola, 22, is facing two counts of second-degree sexual assault, and two counts of sexual assault of a child by a person who works or volunteers with children.

The Racine County Sheriff's Office said Guardiola had inappropriate text message conversations with a 14-year-old boy. A criminal complaint says Guardiola held the teen's hand, touched him, hugged him, and kissed him on the head.

The boy told the sheriff's office that he had sexually assaulted him.

Guardiola was charged and appeared in court on April 10, where his cash bail was set at $5,000.

The sheriff's office said it's investigating the incident and is asking anyone with information to reach out to them at 262-886-2300.

If convicted on all the charges, Guardiola could face a maximum of more than 90 years in prison.
